Reference year	2026
Name	0.6/1KV 50X4C CAL XLPE LOBAC
Technical purpose of product or process	The cable consists of four 50mm² compact stranded aluminium conductors insulated with X-90-UV XLPE compound. It is designed for low voltage power distribution applications requiring lightweight construction and reliable electrical performance. Application- Suitable for low voltage power distribution networks, industrial installations and infrastructure projects. The cable is intended for fixed installation in air, cable trays and ducts where a 0.6/1kV rated power cable is required. AS/NZS 3560.1 AS/NZS 1125
General comment on data set	Data quality: Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different LCA databases. The data quality of the raw materials in A1 is presented in the table below. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Incoming energy and water and waste production in-house is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials is allocated to the main product in which the material was used. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. Cut-off criteria: All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production processes for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (less than 1%) are not included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for hazardous materials and substances.

¹This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
²The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
